Glad to hear that a new owner is taking good care of their new boat, as most do & should be rewarded for by their boats' longenvity & reliability. The current owner/ buyer of my ol' S 2 racer totally destroyed what was a beautifully restored bristol conditioned sailboat. It's really heartbreaking to see a fool destroy a good boat through willful negligence & abuse. This idiot tore up top notch North sails, stripped out a Harken Roller furling, cracked the main lexan hatch in half, tore out the stanchions & lifelines getting hung up on a dock piling & more. To top it off, he burned up a good Yanmar diesel through overheating it, broke his son's arm, & nearly drowned one of his passengers during one of his many mishaps. They say a fool & his money are soon parted, but too bad my ol' boat had to pay the price for it!
